The Arkansas Legislature enacted numerous changes to the Arkansas Tax Code in 2019. However, many of those changes are not effective until future tax years. Federal Tax Changes adopted in the 2020 Cares Act can only be adopted for Arkansas if the Arkansas Legislature adopts them in the 2021 Legislative Session. Act 822 of 2019 amends Arkansas Code Annotated 26-5-101, Article IV, 26-51-709 through 26-51-718 and 26-51-1401 through 26-51-1405 to provide for a single sales factor to apportion income from both within and without Arkansas for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Act 822 also amends Arkansas Code Annotated 26-51-205 to reduce the maximum corporation income tax rate to 6.2% for taxable income that exceeds $100,000 for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2021, and for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2022 the maximum income tax rate shall be 5.9% for income exceeding $25,000. Act 822 amends Arkansas Code Annotated 26-51-427 to allow net operating losses occurring in tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2020 to be carried forward 8 tax years and net operating losses occurring in tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2021 to carry forward 10 tax years. Page 4 IMPORTANT REMINDERS for 2020 Federal Subchapter S Corporations cannot file Arkansas C Returns Act 434 of 2017 amends ACA 26-51-409(b) to require a corporation filing a federal Subchapter S income tax return to file an Arkansas Subchapter S income tax return. ACA 26-51-413(b) is repealed. Federal Subchapter S corporations will no longer be allowed to file Arkansas C corporation income tax returns for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Overpayments made for 2017 estimate payments or 2018 Estimated Credit Carryforwards can be applied to Composite Accounts, Withholding or refunded but will not be applied to Individual Accounts. Effective for tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2018. Multistate Corporations must allocate income from partnerships Act 482 of 2017 amends ACA 26-51-802(c) to require that Partnership income be determined for state income tax purposes by using an apportionment method. Partners will continue to allocate partnership income. Effective for tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2018. Withholding Payments Form AR1100-WH is a new form for 2017 and following years which corresponds with Line 36 on Form AR1100CT for corporations to report withholding tax paid on their behalf by partnerships and will need to be included with Form AR1100CT. Corporations claiming withholding must attach Form AR1100-WH listing each partnership that withheld tax and a copy of Form AR1099PT from each partnership. The partnership must have filed its annual withholding return of Form AR941PT and paid the tax withheld before credit for the withholding will be allowed. Withholding Payments as Reported on Form AR941PT Act 760 of 2017 amends ACA 26-51-919(a)(2), (b)(l)(A)(i). (c)(5)(A) and (d) for the income tax withholding requirements for members or owners of a pass-through entity to require withholding on corporate partners and to allow corporations to participate in composite returns. Effective for tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2018. Amended Tax Returns For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2010 the AR1100CTX Arkansas Amended Return form was removed. An Arkansas Amended Return will be filed on the Form AR1100CT by checking the appropriate box as filing an Amended Return. Taxpayers should use Form AR1100CTX for tax years 2009 and prior. A copy of the corporation’s Federal Amended Return, or IRS audit report, or an explanation for filing the Arkansas Amended Return must be attached to the Form AR1100CT. Arkansas Form AR1100CT To correctly process the Corporation’s return it is essential that every applicable line and space on Form AR1100CT and related schedules be typed or printed including tax year, corporation name, address, city, state, zip code, telephone number, FEIN (Federal Employer Identification Number), date of incorporation, NAICS business code used on the federal return, date began business in Arkansas, and filing status (check one box only). If consolidated box 4 is checked, you must also indicate number of entities in Arkansas in the space immediately to the right of Filing Status 4 description. Consolidated filers must complete a Form AR1100CT (with Schedule A if applicable) for each corporate entity and a separate Form AR1100CT for the consolidated group. If Filing Status 4 is checked, do not check any other filing status box. An Arkansas consolidated group with its members having business activity only within Arkansas must check the box for filing Status 4. Page 5 To correctly process Corporate Income Tax payments, use the AR1100ESCT for Estimate payments and AR1100CTV for Corporate Income Tax payments. For Composite payments use the AR1000CRES for Estimate payments and AR1000CRV for Composite return tax payments. ATAP - Arkansas Taxpayer Access Point Arkansas Taxpayer Access Point (ATAP) is available for the filing of most Arkansas Corporation Income Tax returns and tax payments. Federal returns and other required schedules must be attached with the ATAP filing or mailed separately to the Corporation Income Tax Section. They may be provided on CD, in PDF, or in paper form. The secure online filing, managing, and payment options of ATAP are available at www.atap.arkansas.gov. Taxpayers and their authorized representatives will be able to view and manage their Corporation Income Tax activity including other tax activity such as Individual Income Tax, Sales Tax. Withholding Tax, and other taxes administered by DFA. Accountants and attorneys must obtain permission from their clients to access and view their client’s accounts.

Each member’s Arkansas Business Incentive Tax Credit may be combined to reduce the consolidated group’s total tax liability without separate entity restrictions, except for the Arkansas Economic Development Credit and ArkPlus Credit. Charitable contribution limits are calculated on a separate corporation basis for consolidated filers. All percentages used in determining the apportionment factor on Schedule A must be calculated to 6 places to the right of the decimal (example 35.333452%). Estimated Tax Requirements ACA 26-51-911(c)(1) and ACA 26-51-913(a)(2) adopt federal due dates for making declarations of estimated Arkansas income tax. Arkansas taxpayers are required to file an Estimated Declaration when their liability exceeds $1,000. The AR1100ESCT, Estimate Payment Vouchers 1 through 4, and Extension Voucher 5 for tax year 2020 are not included in these instructions. You will find them at our website, www.dfa.arkansas.gov. Filling the forms out online will automatically fill in the taxpayer information and provide the appropriate scan line needed for proper processing. To make sure payments are processed correctly, please use the correct payment voucher. Use the AR1100ESCT vouchers for Corporation Income tax payments. For Individual Composite payments use the AR1000CRES vouchers. ACA 26-19-106 provides that a corporation with an estimated quarterly income tax liability equal to or greater than $20,000.00 must pay the estimated quarterly income tax due by electronic funds transfer (Refer to General Instructions). Corporations that underestimate their corporate tax liability must calculate any penalty due as applicable, on Part 2 of Form AR2220, and enter the penalty amount on page 1, Line 45 of Form AR1100CT. Enter the numerical exception from Part 3 in the box on Line 45 if applicable. If a corporation is required to remit Arkansas estimated corporation income tax payments through the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) method, ACA 26-19-107 authorizes the assessment of an EFT penalty equal to five percent (5%) based on the amount of taxes due. Taxpayers who are required to pay by EFT will be notified in writing by the Department. The Form EFT-CT is no longer used to register for EFT payments. You will find current instructions at https://www.dfa.arkansas.gov/excise-tax/sales-and-use-tax/electronic-filing-and-paymentoptions/ or by calling Excise Tax at (501) 682-7105.

Page 8 2020 State of Arkansas Domestic and Foreign Income Tax General Instructions Who Must File Every corporation organized or registered under the laws of this State, or having income from Arkansas sources as defined in ACA 26-51-205, must file an income tax return. Consolidated returns are permitted under certain conditions. D.I.S.C and F.S.C. Corporations are treated as regular business corporations. Business corporations, D.I.S.C, and F.S.C. Corporations should use Arkansas Form AR1100CT. Small business “S” corporations must use Form AR1100S. Financial institutions must check the appropriate filing status box on the Form AR1100CT or AR1100S. A pass-through entity filing as an LLC or Partnership, or a pass-through entity electing to file as a corporation, should check the box on Form AR1100CT. (Refer to ACA 4-32-1313 or ACA 26-51-802.) Consolidated Returns All corporations that are eligible members of an affiliated group filing a Federal Consolidated corporation income tax return may elect to file an Arkansas Consolidated income tax return. However, only corporations in the affiliated group that have gross income from sources within the State that is subject to Arkansas income tax are eligible to file consolidated income tax returns in Arkansas. An Arkansas consolidated group with its members having business activity only within Arkansas must check the box for Filing Status 4. In computing Arkansas consolidated taxable income or loss to which the tax rate is applied, the separate net income or loss of each corporation that is entitled to be included in the affiliated group will be included in the consolidated net income or loss to the extent that its net income or loss is separately apportioned or allocated to Arkansas. All corporations in the affiliated group that are eligible to file an Arkansas Consolidated corporation income tax return must consent to, and join in, the filing of the return prior to the last day for filing. The filing of the consolidated return will be considered as consent of each eligible corporation in the affiliated group. Corporations with Filing Status 4 (Consolidated Return) must complete a separate Form AR1100CT reflecting taxable income before intercompany eliminations and adjustments, and Schedule A, if multistate, for each member with gross income from sources within Arkansas. Each member’s separate net income or loss must be consolidated on a group Form AR1100CT beginning on Line 30. Schedule A should not be completed for the consolidated group, but must be included for signature by a corporate officer. A complete copy of the Federal return must be attached. A schedule listing each intercompany elimination and adjustment, identifying the entity by FEIN to which it applies must be submitted if this information is not clearly shown on the Federal return. Time For Filing Arkansas adopted a new due date for Corporate Income tax returns for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2016. Arkansas Corporate Income Tax Returns are now due the 15th day of the 4th month following the end of the tax year. This includes short tax years. Cooperative Association returns are due on or before the 15th day of the 9th month following the close of the tax year. Exempt organizations are due on the 15th day of the 5th month. Extensions of Time for Filing If you have received an automatic Federal extension (Form 7004), the time for filing your Arkansas Corporation Income Tax Return shall be extended until the due date of your federal return. When filing the Arkansas Form AR1100CT, check the box at the top indicating that the Federal Extension Form 7004 and/or Arkansas Extension Form AR1155 has been filed and file the Arkansas return on or before the extended due date. It is no longer necessary to include a copy of the Federal Form 7004. To request an initial Arkansas extension of 180 days from the original Arkansas return due date or an Arkansas extension of 60 days beyond the automatic federal extension due date, complete and mail Arkansas Form AR1155 by the federal extended due date or, if applicable, the Arkansas extended due date to the Corporation Income Tax Section. If you have an automatic federal extension and do not want to request an additional 60 day Arkansas extension, you do not fill out the Form AR1155. Extensions using Form AR1155 are only available for the filing of original returns. Approved Arkansas extension(s) must be attached to the Arkansas income tax return when it is filed. Submit payment with the AR1155 Voucher that is attached to the form only if you are requesting an Arkansas Extension, unless paying by EFT method. Page 9 Amended Returns Filing Declaration of Estimated Income Tax For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2010 the AR1100CTX Arkansas Amended Return form was removed. An Arkansas Amended Return will be filed on the AR1100CT by checking the appropriate box as filing an Amended Return. Taxpayers should use AR1100CTX for tax years 2009 and prior. A copy of the corporation’s Federal Amended Return, or IRS audit report, or an explanation for filing the Arkansas Amended Return must be attached to the AR1100CT. Arkansas amended returns must be filed within three (3) years from date of filing the original return, or two (2) years from date of payment of tax on the original return, whichever is later, except when required to report the final results of an IRS audit. Refund requests must be filed on the amended return. Attach schedules and an explanation for filing the Arkansas amended return to the AR1100CT. If multistate, attach amended apportionment schedule. If consolidated, attach separate company amended AR1100CT with amended apportionment schedule, if applicable. Interest at 10% per annum will be computed on a daily rate of .00027397 from the original return due date to date amended return is filed and the tax is paid. Every taxpayer who can expect to owe Arkansas income tax in excess of $1,000 must make a declaration and the timely pay the estimated tax in equal installments. The declaration shall be filed with the commissioner on or before the 15th day of the 4th month of the tax year of the taxpayer. Taxpayers, whose income from farming for the tax year can reasonably be expected to amount to at least two-thirds (2/3) of the total gross income from all sources for the tax year, may file such declaration and pay the estimated tax on or before the 15th day of the 2nd month after the close of the tax year or the taxpayer may file an income tax return and pay the tax on or before the 15th day of the 4th month after the close of the tax year. To avoid penalty, all other taxpayers must pay quarterly estimates on or before the 15th day of the 4th month, 6th month, 9th month and 12th month of the tax year. The Form AR1100ESCT, Estimate payment vouchers 1 through 4 and Extension payment voucher 5 are not included in these instructions. Filling out the forms on our website, www.dfa.arkansas.gov, will automatically fill in the taxpayer information and provide the appropriate scan line needed for proper processing. Report of Change in Federal Taxable Income Corporations may remit estimated and extension corporation income tax payments through ATAP (Refer to www.atap.arkansas.gov for instructions). An agreed Revenue Agent’s Report (RAR) must be reported on an amended return using the appropriate Form AR1100CT or AR1100CTX (refer to Amended Return instructions). The RAR must be reported to this State within 180 days after the receipt of the RAR or supplemental report reflecting correct net income of taxpayer. ACA 26-18-306(b)(1-3) states that a refund shall not be paid if the amended return is filed on or after the 181st day following receipt of the notice from the IRS. Any additional tax and interest must be paid with the amended return or a refund must be requested on an amended return if applicable. Statute of limitations will remain open for three (3) years for assessment of tax if a taxpayer fails to disclose Federal Revenue Agent’s Report. Period Covered A taxpayer must calculate their Arkansas income tax liability using the same income year for Arkansas income tax purposes as used for Federal income tax purposes (ACA 26-51-402). Arkansas Regulation 1.26-51102(17)(B) states, A fractional part of a year (short tax year) means a period of less than twelve (12) months. If a short tax year ends on or before the 15th day of the month, then the short tax year shall be deemed to have ended on the last day of the previous month. If a short tax year ends on or after the 16th of the month, then the short tax year shall be deemed to have ended on the last day of the current month. Page 10 If the Director determines that a corporation’s estimated quarterly Arkansas income tax liability exceeds $20,000.00, the corporation is required to pay the estimated quarterly income tax payments due by electronic funds transfer (EFT). The EFT must be made no later than the day before each quarterly due date. If the corporation timely pays the estimated quarterly income tax payments by EFT, the corporation is not required to file a quarterly estimated income tax voucher. If a taxpayer is required to submit estimate payments by EFT, a letter will be sent by DFA notifying the taxpayer of the requirement. Accounting Methods A taxpayer must calculate their Arkansas income tax liability using the same accounting method for Arkansas income tax purposes as used for Federal income tax purposes. If a corporation changes its accounting method, attach a copy of any certification or approval received from the Internal Revenue Service authorizing the change of accounting method to the corporation’s Arkansas return.(ACA 26-51-401). Payment of Taxes Balance Sheets The tax should be paid by attaching to the return a check or money order payable to the order of “Department of Finance & Administration.” Enclose proper payment voucher with all remittance checks and write the corporation’s FEIN or CIT account ID number and the tax year on the check. Payments with returns may not be made by EFT. Tax due on returns may be paid through ATAP. (Refer to www.atap.arkansas.gov.) To avoid interest and/or penalty the tax must be paid in full by the original return due date, which is the 15th day of the 4th month after the close of the corporation’s tax year. An approved federal and/or state extension, which allows the corporation’s return to be filed on or before the approved extended due date, does not extend the time period to pay the tax due in full. Interest and/or penalty will be assessed on any tax due paid after the original return due date as referenced above. Payments with a return should include the AR1100CTV payment voucher for Corporation Income tax payments and the AR1000CRV for Individual Income tax. The balance sheet submitted with the return should be prepared from the books and should agree therewith. If there are any differences between current year beginning and prior year ending balance sheets, submit a schedule of reconciliation with the return. All corporations engaged in an interstate and intrastate trade or business and reporting to the Surface Transportation Board, or to any national, state, municipal or other public officer, may submit copies of their balance sheet, prescribed by said Board, national, state or municipal authorities, as of the beginning and end of the taxable year. Penalties and Interest The following penalties shall be imposed:(ACA 26-18208) Failure to file timely - 5% per month not to exceed 35%. Failure to make timely remittance - 5% per month not to exceed 35%. Underestimate penalty - 10% of the amount of the underestimate. Failure to file return - $50.00. Failure to make required EFT payment - 5% of the tax due. Incomplete electronic payment -10% of the amount of the draft or $20.00, whichever is greater. Failure to Comply - $50.00. If any part of any deficiency or tax liability is due to negligence or intentional disregard of rules and regulations, a penalty of 10% of the total amount shall be added. Any part of any deficiency determined to be due to fraud shall be subject to a 50% penalty. Interest at the rate of 10% per annum shall be assessed on all tax deficiencies. Interest will be computed using a daily rate of .00027397 from the 15th day of the 4th month after the close of the tax year until the date the tax is paid.

Multistate corporations should not complete lines 7-29 of Form AR1100CT. Business Income is defined in ACA 26-51-701(a) as income arising from transactions and activity in the regular course of the taxpayer’s trade or business and includes income from tangible and intangible property if the acquisition, management, and disposition of the property constitute integral parts of the taxpayer’s trade or business operations. In essence, all income which arises from the conduct of trade or business operations of a taxpayer is business income. Income of any type or class and from any source is business income if it arises from transactions and activity occurring in the regular course of a trade or business. In general, all transactions and activities of the taxpayer’s economic enterprise as a whole constitute the taxpayer’s trade or business and will be considered “Business Income”, unless otherwise excluded by Arkansas law. ACA 26-51-701(e) defines Nonbusiness income as all income other than business income. Unitary Determination of Intangible Income Interest, dividends (less than 80% directly owned), rents, royalties, gains, and losses from multistate corporations are apportionable to Arkansas if a unitary business relationship exists between the intangible income and the State of Arkansas. Generally, a unitary business relationship will exist when an activity conducted in one state benefits and is benefited by an activity conducted in another state. Financial Institutions must use the single weighted sales factor. Construction companies, pipelines, publishing companies, railroads, and TV and radio broadcasters must utilize the double weighted sales factor apportionment method with factor modifications. Requirements for apportionment formulas of the businesses listed in this paragraph (except for financial institutions) are contained in the Arkansas Corporation Income Tax Regulations which may be obtained from www.dfa.arkansas.gov/income-tax/corporation/. Change of Method Prior approval Required Before Deviation From the Allocation and Apportionment Method: If the allocation and apportionment provisions as set out above do not fairly represent the extent of the taxpayer’s business activity in this State, the taxpayer may petition for, or the Commissioner of Revenue, Department of Finance and Administration may require in respect to all or any part of the taxpayer’s business activity, if reasonable: A) Separate accounting B) The exclusion of any one or more factors; C) The inclusion of one or more additional factors which will fairly represent the taxpayer’s business activity in this State, or D) The employment of any other method to effectuate an equitable allocation and apportionment of the taxpayer’s income. Apportionment Formula To “petition for” and approved by DFA shall mean a formal written request submitted and approved prior to the filing of a return. In general, taxpayers with income derived from activities both within and without the State are required to apportion Business Income and allocate the Nonbusiness and Partnership income using the following factors: Schedule A-Apportionment of Income for Multistate Corporation All multistate corporations except Financial Institutions apportion business income to this State by multiplying the income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the property factor plus the payroll factor, plus double the sales factor, and the denominator of which is four (4). If a taxpayer does not have all four (4) factors, the denominator shall be the same as the number of entries other than zero (0) that apply to the total (everywhere) amounts of the property, payroll and sales factors. When double weighted, the sales factor counts as two (2). Part A - Income To Apportion Line 1: Enter federal taxable income before any adjustments, net operating losses, or special deductions from Line 28 of the federal Form 1120.

(Attach schedule) Gross receipts from transactions other than sales of tangible personal property are attributed to Arkansas if: 1) The income producing activity is performed entirely within Arkansas or, 2) If the income producing activity is performed both inside and outside of Arkansas, the income reportable to Arkansas is determined by calculating the property, payroll, and sales factor excluding sales from transactions other than the sale of tangible personal property and applying the resulting percentage to the Arkansas sales factor numerator for gross receipts from transactions other than sales of tangible personal property. (f) Enter Total Sales/Receipts: (Add Lines 3a through 3e). Divide Line 3f in Column A by Line 3f in Column B to arrive at the percentage for Line 3f in Column C.

(Enter here and on Line 30, page 1) Special Industry Apportionment Rules Arkansas Regulations require taxpayers primarily engaged in certain industries to apportion income using a special industry apportionment method. See below for a brief description of each special industry apportionment method. For a complete description of industries that are required to modify their apportionment factors, see the Corporation Income Tax Regulations at www.dfa.arkansas.gov. Construction Contractors Arkansas Regulation 1.26-51-718(d) modifies the property factor to include the average value of construction in progress. It also modifies the payroll factor to include compensation paid for particular construction projects and compensation “thrown back” to Arkansas if not reported to another state. The sales factor is modified for the percentage of completion method. Television and Radio Broadcasting Arkansas Regulation 2.26-51-718(d) modifies the property factor to exclude outer-jurisdictional, film and radio transmission property from the numerator and denominator of the property factor. The numerator of the sales factor shall include all gross receipts of the taxpayer from sources within Arkansas plus a ratable part of film Page 17 or radio programming revenue including advertising revenue determined by an audience factor. The audience factor is determined based on the ratio that the taxpayer’s Arkansas viewing or listening audience bears to its total viewing or listening audience. Publishing Arkansas Regulation 3.26-51-718(d) modifies the apportionment factors for taxpayers in the business of publishing, selling, licensing or distribution of books, newspapers, magazines, periodicals, trade journals, or other printed materials that have income from sources both inside and outside of Arkansas. Outer-jurisdictional property shall not be included in the property factor’s denominator. The sales factor is modified to include a “circulation factor”. Airlines Arkansas Regulation 4.26-51-718(d) requires airlines to determine Arkansas net taxable income by taking that portion of total operating revenue that the total passenger and freight receipts in Arkansas bears to total receipts from both inside and outside of Arkansas. The Arkansas and Total Passenger & Freight Receipts should be included on line 3.f. of Schedule A of Form AR1100CT with a notation that this represents Passenger & Freight Receipts. Bus Lines and Trucking Companies Arkansas Regulation 5.26-51-718(d) requires a company whose primary business is bus lines or trucking to determine its net income subject to Arkansas income tax by an apportionment formula which is the number of miles operated within Arkansas divided by the total system miles. The Arkansas and Total miles operated should be included on Line 3.f of Schedule A of Form AR1100CT with a notation that this represents mileage. Pipelines Arkansas Regulation 6.26-51-718(d) establishes special rules for taxpayers operating a pipeline for the transportation of oil or gas both inside and outside of Arkansas. The payroll factor includes compensation paid both inside and outside of Arkansas plus a ratable part for services performed both in and outside the State based on the total number of barrel or unit miles in Arkansas divided by the total barrel or unit miles system-wide. The sales factor includes any gas sales and storage sales within Arkansas plus a proportionate part of system revenue earned in Arkansas determined on the basis of total barrel or unit miles within Arkansas to the total barrel or unit miles in the system. Page 18 Railroads Arkansas Regulation 1.26-51-204 modifies the property, payroll, and sales factor to include a mobile component that is calculated based on miles operated in Arkansas divided by total system miles. Private Railcar Operators Arkansas Regulation 2.26-51-204 requires taxpayers, other than a railroad, engaged in the business of operating railcars or in the business of furnishing or leasing railcars for the transportation of freight or property whether or not owned by such taxpayer, over any railway lines partly within and partly without the State to determine Arkansas net taxable income by taking that portion of total net operating income that the total miles operating in the State bears to total system miles operated. Public Utilities Arkansas Regulation 3.26-51-204 requires telephone, electric power, and gas distribution companies operating both inside and outside of Arkansas shall allocate and apportion their net income provided under ACA 26-51-701. Allocated Income 2. Gain and Losses: Partnership Income Gains and losses from sales of assets: A) Sales of real property located in this State. Act 482 of 2017 amends ACA 26-51-802(c) to require partnership income from activites within and without this State that is reflected on a partnership return shall be apportioned to Arkansas under the uniform Division of Income for Tax Purposes Act (ACA 26-51-701 et seq). Corporations that are partners in a partnership must allocate their share of partnership income as shown on form ARK-1 from the partnership. Non-Business Income The following items of income to the extent that they do not constitute business income are to be allocated to this State. B) Sales of tangible personal property. 1) The property had a situs in this State at the time of sale, or 2) The taxpayer’s commercial domicile is in this State, or 3)The property has been included in depreciation which has been allocated to this State; in which event gains or losses on such sales shall be allocated on the percentage that is used in the formula for allocating income to this State. 3. Interest and Dividends: 1. Rents & Royalties: A) Net rents and royalties from real property located in Interest and dividends if the taxpayer’s commercial domicile is in this State. this State. B) Net rents and royalties from tangible personal 4. Patent and Copyright Royalties: property 1) If and to the extent that the property is used in A) If and to the extent that the patent or copyright is utilized by the taxpayer in this State, this State, or or 2) In their entirety, if the commercial domicile is in B) If and to the extent that the patent or copyright is utilized by the taxpayer in a state in which this State and the taxpayer is not organized under the taxpayer is not taxable and the taxpayer’s the laws of or taxable in the state in which the commercial domicile is in this State. property is utilized. The extent of utilization of tangible personal property in a state is determined by multiplying the rents and royalties by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days of physical location of the property in the State during the rental or royalty period in the taxable year; and the denominator of which is the number of days of physical location of the property everywhere during all rental or royalty periods in the taxable year. If the physical location of the property during the rental or royalty period is unknown or unascertainable by the taxpayer, tangible personal property is utilized in the state in which the property is located at the time the rental or royalty payer obtained possession. A copyright is utilized in a state to the extent that printing or other publications originate in the state. If the basis of receipts from copyright royalties does not permit allocation to states or if the accounting procedures do not reflect states of utilization, the copyright is utilized in the state in which the taxpayer’s commercial domicile is located. Apportionment of Intragroup Intangible Licensing Transactions: Regulation 1996-3 clarifies the calculation method for determining the sales factor in apportioning business income received from intragroup intangible licensing transactions. This regulation applies to a corporation that is a passive intangible holding company and receives business income from intragroup intangible licensing transactions with one or more members of the same group. Also, at least one of the other members of the same group from which the business income is received by the taxpayer must be subject to the Arkansas Income Tax Act. Page 19 The sales factor for intragroup intangible transactions is modified as follows: 1. If the licensing agreement states a method of measuring the activity between the licensor and licensee, the numerator of the sales factor is the amount of the sales or receipts received as provided in the licensing agreement. 2. If the licensing agreement does not state a method of measuring the activity between the licensor and licensee, the measuring activity will be based on one of the following: a. If the licensee’s activity generates sales or receipts, the numerator of the sales factor will be the percentage of sales in Arkansas compared to the licensee’s total sales, or b. If the licensee’s activity does not generate sales or receipts, the numerator of the sales factor will be the percentage of units produced or cost of units produced in Arkansas compared to the licensee’s total units produced or total cost of units produced, or c. If neither of the above methods accurately represent the licensor’s business activity in Arkansas, the licensor may petition for, or the Director may require, another method. 3. If the licensing agreement states a method of measuring the activity between the licensor and licensee in addition to a specifically stated dollar amount, the numerator of the sales factor will be the stated measuring activity plus the stated dollar amount attributable to Arkansas. This Regulation modifies the sales factor for intragroup intangible licensing transactions only. Business income from any other source should be apportioned in accordance with ACA 26-51-709. If a passive intangible holding company meets the above characteristics and the licensee elects to forego the intragoup intangible licensing transactions deduction, the passive intangible holding company will not be required to report the business income received from intragroup intangible licensing transactions for Arkansas income tax purposes. The licensee’s election to forego the deduction will be binding unless the licensee and the passive intangible holding company submit a written petition to change the election to the Director, and the Director approves the change. Page 20 Financial Institutions In general, all state and national banks, savings and loan, building and loan associations, or any other entity operating as financial institutions are to be taxed under existing law. For a complete definition of “financial institution”, refer to ACA 26-51-1402. Who Must File 1) A financial institution having its principal office in this State shall be taxed as a business corporation organized and existing under the laws of this State, or 2) A financial institution having its principal office outside this State, but doing business in this State, shall be taxed as a foreign business corporation doing business in this State. This is not intended to recognize the right of a foreign financial institution to conduct any business in this State except to the extent and under the conditions permitted by any acts or any other now existing applicable laws of this State. ACA 26-51-702 requires any taxpayer having income from business activity which is taxable both within and without this state, other than activity as a public utility or the rendering of purely personal services by an individual, shall allocate and apportion their net income. ACA 26-51-426 adopted Internal Revenue Code Sections 582, 585, and 593 as in effect January 1, 1999, regarding bad debts of financial institutions. ACA 26-51-1401 et seq. adopted the Multistate Tax Commission regulation regarding apportionment and allocation of net income of financial institutions. It requires that a financial institution whose business activity is taxable both within and without this State to allocate and apportion its net income to this State. All business income which is includable in the apportionable income tax base shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying such income by the apportionment percentage which is determined by adding the receipts factor, property factor, and payroll factor, and dividing the sum by three (3). Receipts Factor Generally, the receipts factor is a fraction; the numerator is the financial institution’s gross receipts in Arkansas during the taxable year, and the denominator is all gross receipts that the financial institution derives from transactions and activities in the regular course of its trade or business. Interest from loans secured by real property is attributed to Arkansas if the property is located in Arkansas. Interest from loans not secured by real property is attributed to Arkansas if the borrower is located in Arkansas. Interest from credit cards receivables and fees charged to card holders are attributable to Arkansas if the billing address of the card holder is in Arkansas. Net gains from the sale of loans and loan servicing fees are sourced in the same manner as the loan interest. Net gains from the sale of credit card receivables are sourced in the same manner as the interest on credit card receivables. Interest, dividends, and net gains from investment and trading assets and activities are attributed to Arkan

About the Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
